Description
This route is of better quality than the Super Crack of the Monument. It has better stone and is longer. Rather than a hand crack, it sports every size from tight hands to cups, [115]'. This is well worth the hike across the gully from Tiara Rado. It gets wider at the top!
Per Paul S: P2 starts out with a few bulges with that horrid size: too tight for a fist but too wide for a secure hand jam on good rock. After that the difficulty eases, but the rock takes a turn for the worse. There's some big, potentially dangerous chunks of rock that you need to climb around. The top out moves are heads up too. Super soft rock with bad fall potential. I delicately yarded on micro cams to get past that section. A single 70m rope gets you back to the ground in 2 raps.
